Narrative

"native" [http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=native&id=I09165] says, "Sometime after the birth of their son Cyrus, born in 1817, she left John Harrison. When he tried to join her and her family later in Indian Territory, she changed her name to Betty Harris, to deny his relationship."

Called Elizabeth Gunn after her step-father (see Molly Colbert).
